It’s been over a year since Danielle Smith promised to fix our health care system in 90 days.
The situation today looks a lot like it did back then. Long wait times, understaffed or closed ER’s and a million Albertans without a family doctor.

Thanks to all who have proudly put a sign on their lawn. Undecided voters, and conservatives who no longer see themselves in the UCP can be convinced to LEND their votes to the NDP to support our vision of a Better Future for Alberta knowing their neighbours are behind us.

The UCP's failed lab privatization cost Albertans millions in wasted money and didn't result in better or faster lab results. Danielle Smith's push for surgeries in private clinics hasn't improved wait times, and they cost more than surgeries in a public hospital.
Now, the UCP

The UCP only know how to do two things: pick fights and waste YOUR money. We are working on building a better life for you.
It seems like the UCP are scared of something…weird. While they’re out there attacking me, I’ll be here with my
